Established in 1847 as a national academy of music, we are now one of the world’s most multi-disciplinary conservatoires, offering specialised and intensive teaching in dance, drama, music, production and film.

We are the only UK conservatoire that offers training inall performance disciplines and students have the opportunity to collaborate with their peers, formally and informally across all disciplines.

Exchange Opportunities

The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS) is a recognised institution within the European Commission’s Erasmus+ programme, linking us to over 60 other conservatoires and institutions throughout Europe. Erasmus+ exchanges enable our students to study in Europe as part of their course and for students from partner institutions to study with us.

If you’ve decided you’d like to spend some time studying with us you need to check with your International Office/Erasmus Coordinator to see if there is an inter-institutional agreement in place between your institution and the Royal Conservatoire. If your institution is one of our partners and is able to agree to you applying for an Erasmus exchange during the forthcoming academic year, you will be required to complete an online application.
